N1 - GIDE, the Group for International Design Education is an international network of art & design institutions who have, since 2003, collaborated annually in an EU city and delivered shared project themes which integrate flexibly into art school and university curricula. GIDE exists to enrich the creative and intercultural experiences of students’ and staff by providing regular interdisciplinary symposia, workshops, exhibitions and publications designed to help students engage with ethical design challenges and in operating effectively in future, global markets. As a model of engagement, GIDE offers a far more effective, democratic and academically integrated alternative to Erasmus by reaching greater numbers of student’s (and staff) through exciting events which encourage interdisciplinary, knowledge exchange and the sharing of design methods and creative processes. A core feature of any GIDE experience involves ethical and site-specific projects which address societal challenges in collaboration with sponsors, local industry, researchers and creative & cultural organisations linked to the host city in which the workshop event occurs. GIDE currently consists of eight partner institutions (in alphabetical order) from leading schools in;
Dundee, (Scotland)
Wuxi, (China)
Ljubljana, (Slovenia)
Leeds, (England)
Mechelen, (Belgium)
Magdeburg, (Germany)
Milano, (Italy)
Lugano, (Switzerland)
Each institutions nominates an International Coordinator for that country to contribute to strategic planning of events and exchanges. Recent GIDE guest schools and professors have also included collaboration with:
UNTexas, College of Visual Arts (USA)
Ryerson, School of Interior Design, Toronto, (Canada)
AKV|St.Joost, School of Fine Art and Design, Breda, (Netherlands)

N2 - 'CampUS: Among + For + With Students & Citizens' is the published account of the international workshop hosted by Politecnico di Milano as part of the intercultural art and design higher education network GIDE. This publication explores the academy and its interrelationship with the city. But a city is shaped by the everyday life of its people. We live in it, love, eat, study, work, have free time, run, buy, meet each other. Lots of “little acts” happen in places that are part of our life, some rituals repeat in the same places and we grow close to them. The city is the social setting of our daily experiences, gestures and our stories. Therefore designing a meaningful place means design a narrative environment that will tell users and transients a story.University campuses are some of these places. Every day, thousands of students and teachers move towards the university crossing from the city to the academy. In this journey we encounter emotions, personality and different cultures; what is local is global. In the neighbourhoods where the campuses are located the communities opens to them, hosts and meets them, growing with them.' CampUS' reflects this social and spatial interconnection among the campus and the university area, the students and the citizens. 'CampUS' as a place for students and citizens; 'CampUS' as a collector of skills, competences, creativity to be used in the townThis publication describes the outcomes from a large international workshop, linked both the city in which the university is based,but also linked to the events in the Milano 2015 World Expo. During the workshop, twelve teams developed responses to twelve urban narratives and twelve .moments' of a regular day of a student in Milan. Each moment is connected to 12 significant places in Milan: these places and these moments will be the projects’ inspiration: a happy hour at “Camparino” or a running session in the Parco Sempione or a lecture in Triennale and many more.An outcome of the workshop led to the creation of twelve temporary micor-settings about these stories.
